“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (6)
The role is primarily operational/administrative — deploying, configuring, and supporting Citrix SaaS host pools, session hosts, and workspaces on AWS, with day-to-day platform administration — which points to 15-1244. However, the strong emphasis on AWS automation development gives it a meaningful software-development dimension (alt: 15-1252).
The automation tools requirement lists 'PowerShell, Terraform, or similar' under Required Qualifications. PowerShell is emitted as the primary required skill with Terraform as an alternative; Terraform is also listed separately as preferred to reflect that either tool satisfies the gate but both are named.
Entra ID (Azure AD), RBAC, and MFA are explicitly marked 'preferred' in the posting and are flagged accordingly.
Hands-on experience with AWS Citrix SaaS deployments appears under Preferred Qualifications and is captured within the Citrix skill (marked preferred) rather than as a duplicate entry.
The degree requirement states 'undergraduate degree or equivalent combination of training and experience,' so no hard degree gate is set.
Location is Malvern, PA (Vanguard's headquarters), within the Philadelphia CBSA. The posting describes a hybrid working model, not fully remote.
